Q: Pope Leo cited Matthew 25:35 to critique Donald Trump's mass deportation agenda. How would you respond to Pope Leo in scripture?

MIKE JOHNSON: Sovereign borders are biblical and right and just. It's not because we hate the people on the outside. It's because we love the people on the inside.

January 15, 2026 at 5:08 PM Reid Forgrave ICE agents eat at small-town Mexican restaurant — then arrest workers Federal agents detained three workers from a family-owned Mexican restaurant in Willmar yesterday, hours after four agents ate lunch there. It was not immediately clear what the immigration status of those detained was, or whether the people detained included the restaurant’s owners or only workers. An eyewitness who declined to give a name for fear of retribution, told the Minnesota Star Tribune that four ICE agents sat in a booth for a meal at El Tapatio a little before 3 p.m. Staff at the restaurant were frightened, said the eyewitness, who shared pictures from the restaurant as well as video of the arrest. The arrest happened around 8:30 p.m. near a Lutheran church and Willmar Middle School as agents followed the workers after they closed up for the night. A handful of bystanders blew whistles and shouted at agents as they detained the people. “Would your mama be proud of you right now?” one of the bystanders asked.

Since my Metroid guide was new to a lot of people, I figure I'd reshare my old Hand-Drawn Zelda guide. It's a fully illustrated guide to the first Zelda, complete with dungeon maps, and tied together in a storybook presentation. It's also free!

Will probably never get over this particular incident www.liberalcurrents.com/why-we-need-...
In early April last year, during a visit with someone important to me, the topic turned to politics. Neither of us is shy about getting into these things with one another, and never have been. Over time I have grown more selective about which battles I pick, but in this case I thought I was picking a relatively easy one: the January 6 insurrection. After all, I remembered what he had said at the time, which was an unqualified denunciation of what was, in his words, Donald Trump inciting a riot. I assumed our disagreement was going to merely be over whether it was wise to prosecute Trump. I was wrong. Saying that he had simply been misled by the media initially, that with information we’ve learned since he’d come to change his view, he completely dismissed the significance of the events of January 6 as anything but a propaganda coup for Trump’s opposition due to the optics of it. The “only person who was killed” was “on the protesters’ side,” and therefore any supposed danger the “protesters” posed, or the laws they broke, could be dismissed. The relentless physical assaults on law enforcement at the scene went unmentioned (never mind the circumstances under which the “person who was killed” was shot). And “it isn’t as though Trump said to do an insurrection.” This is, of course, the kind of logic you see with Holocaust denial and other saying-it-but-not-quite-saying it rhetorical games. Indeed, outright dictators mocking the weakness of democracy never actually say that their own country is not one, instead they speak in euphemisms about “the West” or simply “liberalism.”

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.
